To Do Enhanced is the simplest to do list software I have come across. It stays at bottom right corner of your screen, showing you tasks that you need to complete. You can configure it to stay on top of all programs. It does not have any reminder feature, nor comes with corresponding web or smartphone apps. However, the USP is sheer simplicity.

There are tons of to do list manages available nowadays, for all possible platforms (Windows 8, Mac, Web, Android, iOS). The trend is towards using task managers that can be accessed from everywhere, be it web or smartphone (like, Evernote).

However, one of the most popular methods that is still prevalent to maintain to do lists is to use just use notepad. That is because Notepad provides unmatched simplicity, and many a times people don’t want to have features like reminders etc. For that group of users, this To DO Enhanced is a perfect choice. It gives the same simplicity, with something extra.
